Plymouth-Canton business briefs

The Plymouth Community Arts Council has been awarded a Community Foundation of Plymouth grant to support its exhibit programming.

The PCAC hosts 11 exhibits each year in its Main Gallery, including solo and group shows, members’ exhibit, scholarship exhibit, open exhibit, student shows and summer camp exhibit. In addition, the Front Wall lobby gallery area is used for companion and community exhibits, including scout and youth student shows, as well as artists who have just a few pieces they wish to showcase.

The PCAC also has a revolving exhibit at the Plymouth Township lobby that features instructor pieces, adult student work or in-house art pieces.

The PCAC will use the grant to fund the scheduling, coordinating, preparing, installing and promoting exhibits.

“I enjoy being part of the artists’ exhibitions. People don’t realize how much work goes into presenting artwork in a gallery or on a wall. Putting your work out for the world to see is very intimidating, but important step in the creativity process. I am so thankful that both the Community Foundation of Plymouth and the residents of our community support the arts in such a comprehensive way,” said Lisa Howard, PCAC executive director.

The PCAC gallery is open Mondays, 9 a.m.-4 p.m;. Tuesdays 11:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.; Wednesdays, 11:30 a.m.-5 p.m.; Thursdays, noon-4 p.m. The gallery is also open the second Saturday of each month from 1-3 p.m., during public events, and by appointment by emailing lisa@plymoutharts.com. Most art displayed is for public sale.
